I actually read this book before I realized there was going to be a movie. Now that there is an entire movie trailer that can explain this story better than I ever could, I’m not sure my review is entirely needed. I will say this, if you haven’t seen the movie yet, READ THE BOOK! It’s so, […]

For as long as I can remember, how to lose weight has been a major topic of discussion and constant source of disappointment for the women in my family. Growing up it was completely normal to listen to my grandmother, aunts, and my mother discuss their recent successes, new diets, and moments of weakness. Unfortunately […]

I was so excited to get the opportunity to do a gender reveal photo shoot yesterday.
